Not sure what OP is trying to accomplish with this, but Auburn has some issues in the secondary. They are susceptible to being beat deep, but that's not necessarily LSU's game. They like to get the ball out quick which kinda plays into AUs strength in the secondary as they are great tacklers.
LSU wont run the ball on Auburn like they were able to against UF. That was the biggest surprise of the game to me that LSU found it's running game.
All that said though, Auburn will not be shutting down LSUs offense. Can they slow them down enough to keep them in the game for a while? Maybe, but doubtful. It's a bad matchup for AU. It's a moot point if Gus doesnt fix his damn offense anyway. Defense can play its arse off but cant win the game if the offense cant score (see the AU/UF game).

We've been great deep when it's available. We just prefer the 10-20 yard passes on the money over the middle to a streak receiver.
Don't let that fool you, Burrow has been accurate deep when that look presents itself and it seems it will present itself against Auburn.
